Odaily News Fractal Bitcoin network announced that it has successfully activated the FIP-101 node upgrade at block height 1,500,000, completing the first phase of consensus changes and initiating standardized index construction. This upgrade has received support from major mining pools including Foundry, AntPool, ViaBTC, F2Pool, and Binance Pool, covering approximately 85% of Bitcoin's total network hash rate. Fractal's block production structure will also gradually transition from a 1:2 ratio of merged mining to solo mining to a ternary structure of merged mining, solo mining, and index block production at a 1:1:1 ratio. Index nodes will be integrated into the core tier of the block production and incentive system.
